We are focused mainly on Ready to ship items - as we buy our fabric in VERY limited quanties and try to use vintage and upcycled textiles whenever possible, also this ensures the uniqueness of each item and really makes your little one extra special!

We have lots more to list - so check in often

If there is any interest in any of our OOAK items as a pattern - let us know, we would love to hear from you!

thanks everyone for being so quick to comment - we wish you all could be testers! We have had so much positive feedback and so many of you want to be testers - it is really flattering :) Next time we will be leaving the posting open for a longer period of time and randomly picking the testers out of all that comment (just to give everyone who comments a fair chance!)

we have got our testers for the little military shirt, they are:

Jamie - 12m
Tucker - 2T
April - 3T/4T
Mrs.Rogers - 5T/6T

i have sent you all the pdf file today along with all the info about testing the pattern. Please let me know asap if you did not receive it or if you need it sent to a different email address.
thanks again
have fun sewing!

1. Have intermediate to advanced sewing experience (nothing against newbies and not that this is a hard pattern to sew, i just need people who have used a lot of patterns before and know what makes sense :)
2. Item to be finished in 1 Week or less of getting the pattern
3. Check pdf for spelling mistakes or pattern labeling mistakes, or any other mistakes (...there are probably a lot :) )
4. Provide a good Picture of the finished product, both of shirt on its own andin action on a little boy (Bonus **if it is a great picture and we use it on our website - you could get even more free patterns! yay)

....not too hard right?

what you need:

1 yard of lightweight to med. weight material for main shirt
1/4 yard of fusible interfacing
Various small scraps of fabric for the "military stripes" above pocket
5 or more matching buttons (depending on how many you use to close the front)
matching thread, sewing machine (obviously!)
optional - patches, embroidery work for embellishment for front or back

if you think you are up to being a tester - let me know by commenting below along with the size you would like to test and your contact info
i will email you the pdf file once all the testers have been chosen (you will recieve the pdf file with all the sizes although i will only need you to test the one size you are picked for)
I will be picking on a first come first serve basis again - so comment soon
